ISBN: 039471475X

Author: Laing, R.D.

Condition: new

A brilliantly original book from one of the 20th century's most influential psychiatrists thatgoes beyond the usual theories of mental illness and alienation to make a convincing case for the "madness of morality."R.D. Laing is at his most wickedly iconoclastic in this eloquent assault on conventional morality. Compelling, unsettling, consistently absorbing, The Politics of Experience is a classic of genuine importance that will "excite, enthrall, and disturb. No one who reads it will remain unaffected." (Rollo May, Saturday Review)
